    Good morning everyone
    It's October 27th at 7:30am on Friday. Thank you for taking us on your journey as you take of my favorite animals. I think they are God's gentle giants. I am a 77year old mother, grandmother and a child of God. I am so thankful i have got a chance to watch and learn about them. I have been watching when before our baby ellie can to you. But God knows what to do with all of creatures.
    Praise His Holy Name. To be able to watch from the start to where she is now I know is just amazing!!!! Wouldn't it be wonderful if the people in the world would take care of each other like the animals do. Treat each other like you want to be treated. Love one another as I am have loved you. Thank you again for sharing your journey with us.
    Praying for all of us in the mighty name of Jesus Christ Amen
    Have blessed and safe journey this week.
    From USA 🇺🇸 ♥️ 💕

    This video was very informative in understanding how the elephants' food is sourced. I especially liked the explanation by your Operations Manager of the particular grass type grown there for the elephants' feed, and how it regrows and is sustainable.
    I also especially liked seeing the various people working there and learning what organizations they're from.
    And the various drone footages really helped me get a better understanding of the reserve that the elephants live at.
    Thank you to everyone that works there or volunteers there! And thank you for making these videos and sharing these important efforts with the world.

    That’s a lot of bales to stack. For my two horses….I stack four 80 pound bales of alfalfa and six 60 pound bales of timothy hay about every 2 weeks. I never feed grain….only pellets and crushed oats. I find it interesting that you feed the elephants pellets. I love pelleted feed because it’s easier for the horses to digest thus reducing the chance of colic. I love that tall grass you grow there…..it looks very delectable and yummy.

    All the exchanging hands of the bales makes no sense and makes it take much longer than if each person individually carries the bales to the stacking place. The only places where the bales should be exchanged from person to person would be at the door and at the pile.

    I am curious why the adult elephants need to be kept at HERD. I know other orphanages raise baby elephants while slowly exposing them to wilderness until they are ready to go out and find their new wild herd. So just wondering why HERD elephants are not released back into the wilderness.

      I have been following HERD for quite sometime so I am going to assume I know this answer..the elephant's develope attachments to each other and choose to be together, they go out into the wild everyday and sometimes encounter wild elephants. They would have to be accepted into a new wild herd but I believe that option is there for them. I think what has been done at HERD is so incredibly beautiful... please someone correct me if I have answered this question incorrectly.

      That is very true.
      That was why she was slowly introduced into her new family.
      It was amazing how they did it.
      And when the older elephants were ready to take over the ladies can in
      she was ready to go but a little at a time. She had to get to use sleeping outside so amazing. It was just amazing watch them.
      Then we got a biology lesson about newborn ellie. God's plan for digestive system they are born with a sterile gi track so they are given elephant dung to get all the nutrients they need. Our Father is amazing. He takes good care of all of us in His own way. I have learned so much watching this vlog.
      Thank you Herd family.

      @samanthadurfee5451 I can give a little info. Khanyisa turned 4 years old on September 26, 2023; I think Timisa is approximately 4 years older than Khanyisa! There are videos on each elephant giving all kinds of info, so you can find that info at HERD South Africa. I expect other subscribers have better info than I do. Hope this is a little help.🐘💗🦋🕊🇺🇲

    A great organization, amazing work. And have to laugh just a little - doesn't elephant dung soap seem an oxymoron?

      If it helps you can also pause the video to read the text they share I do it regularly if I want to ensure I have my info straight.
